Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.

Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

I just got done talking with Murphy Weller. You may know him from this band called The Protomen.

It turns out, they didn't have any plans on Sunday night.

Well, now they have plans. Yes, The Protomen are going to be playing the Post-PAX Party. I'm kind of in shock, because they might just be my favorite band ever, and I'm super-excited to push this party to the next level.

Now, though, there's the question of paying the band. I could raise the remaining ticket price by about $10 to pay them, but I feel like that's unfair to people who haven't bought their tickets yet (and super advantageous to those who have). I could solicit further donations. Or I could dip into the raffle fund. I'm asking for your opinions on this. What do you think I should do?

I'm temporarily suspending ticket sales while I figure out how to proceed. They won't be suspended for very long, probably only a day.

One thing is for sure, though. If I have to dip into my own pocket, I will make this happen. The Protomen will be playing P3.

>.< ! I just bought a ticket to see them on the Friday Oh well. Wouldn't mind donating for the cause!

Wow done and done. Already was bummed cause I had another party to go to on friday night and was gonna miss the Protomen concert but now this, this is just plain awesome. Consider the 15 bucks (hell make it 20 cause im ecstatic) donated for the 3 tickets I bought.

Hey Arco, your post just changed my mind on my tickets on the Fangamer Afterparty with the Protomen just because of this announcement. If my badge can potentially get me in a venue of 700 or so, and I get a guaranteed show on Sunday because of my P3 admission, I am changing my plans and just gonna take this money and throw $10 $15 your way to cover things. Thank you again for putting so much effort into this!

It doesn't make me happy to solicit donations from people who've already purchased tickets, but I feel like in this instance, it's worth it. So a huge, sincere, heartfelt thanks from me to anyone who goes back and donates. You're why PAX is awesome.

I think that's the general consensus when you offer fun, new friends, booze, and Protomen!

FUCK YES. I'm throwing 50 bucks in to help make sure they can get paid. I'm basically gonna be spending every evening watching/hanging out with The Protomen between this, El Corazon, and Jamspace. This is gonna be the best PAX ever. *fanboyexplodes*

Never seen the Protomen but I've heard great things. Glad to have the opportunity. I'd like to donate more but a bit tight on cash right now. I did toss $15 into the raffle donation when I purchased my tickets a few weeks ago, and I'd be fine with any/all of that being transferred over into the Protomen fund. I will toss some dollars in the Protomen fund at a later date if my budget allows.

TOG, I have a feeling I'm going to be seeing a lot of you XD

I'll be pretty hard to miss for the first two concerts. Just look for the guy dressed as Megaman.

More awesome news! Our good friend Jonny Nero (Action Hero!) has agreed to play our party, too! Now we have two musical guests. This is fucking awesome.

Appetizer buffet:

There's a poll up for voting. As soon as the voting is done (in a week or so) I'll send the choices over to Jillian's. We can have however many things we can combine for $15. I'll make sure there's a vegetarian option in there, too. The appetizer buffet lasts 3 hours, from 8-11. It will be refilled however many times it needs to be.

There's only about 50 tickets left, so if you were on the fence, I suggest you buy now. I wouldn't be surprised if there were no tickets left on Monday. We sold 50 in one day yesterday.
